Hi Alex and welcome!
No worries, if the button on the frontpage does not work, you can send a donation to our paypal address sales@retromaniacs.nl
Can be anything you like, every buck helps ;)
Now to your question;
What is it exactly that you would like to know? State all your questions and I will try to answer them as complete as possible. It will take a few hours though, it is 12:43 AM and I just got home ;)
Anything about that model as I'm not finding anything about it really... Is it a 310 or 320 ? Just to know which model it is would be nice...
Regards Alex
P. s donation done
you have a Honda C320 with a C310 engine. they both have the same engine, so someone before you might have switched the engines.
Thank you for that, any idea of the age? Year of manufacture
Goodmorning Alex and thank you Kevin for your answer in which I concur. The Honda C321 can also be named C320S by the way. Comparing your frame number with a few parts lists, I can assume that your model has been built between 1965 and 1968. It is not an exact science because Honda has done a very sloppy job keeping record of their models. I do have to dig through another list that I have not published yet and if that yields any more information, I will post that here.
Hi Alex,
Maybe a picture of the moped would help a lot to identify it quicker.
There are 5 types of C320 models (A, S, TT50, TS50 and TS50DX all with almost the same frame, but completelly different to see.
I was already wondering if the TT and TS also belonged to the 3** types. There is even a document here stating this, but I thought it might have been a typo.
But yes! Pictures!
You can upload them at http://resize.4-stroke.net if they are too big for the forum. :)
Thank you so much for all your help so far...You guys really know your stuff I will definitely be sticking around and seeking your advice about my other honda's I have...

Hi Alex,
This indeed is the early Honda C320A type.
This is the first produced in the C320 line at the Belgium factory in Aalst.
It is quite rare and restauring it can be some hunting for parts.
So to see you have a rather complete bike there. Only colors are not Original and you need a good seat.
If you google for honda c320a you seehow he should look like.
Second hand Parts are mostly available on www.viertaktschuur.nl and local fairs here in Holland.
You can also contact Dax6 Here at the forum, he has a lot of parts laying around, might also have a buddy seat.
Hello again, Thank you for the information,,, I now have the bike here, and meant to say the colour is a darker red not the orange that it appears in the pictures...it even has the original tool pouch with tools in..
I think all parts are there it just needs a good look at tomorrow to see exactly what needs doing...
seat and wheels are the first thing I think...
Hopefully I can restore the parts that I have on it but I know re-chroming can be expensive...
carb to airbox rubber needs replacing tho...
I will update the pictures
Thank you again for your help everybody
picture update...still a bit orange...

Alex,
Everything looks wrong.
To me it looks like a bike built of every model.
Engine C310A type
Frame C321 A, correct
Seat incorrect
Refulling tank C320A
Fenders, C320S
The real C321A looks very diffenrent and is extreemly rare.
I Have got one in my collection. ;D
Frame is C321A -starting nr. 23xxxx
This model was built only 2 month in 1968.
The fenders are equil as the TS50, rear fender taillight is same as TS50DX( 1969/1970)
There has also been a C321S which is as rare as the A type.
send me a e-mail to hasvanrossum65@gmail.com, I'll send you a photo
Cheers,
Herman
